Hi there,

I’m looking for someone to help me cleanly implement bbpress into my wordpress site. I’ve actually had trouble finding freelancers who specifically list bbpress as an area of expertise. Could you guys point me in the right direction? Or if anyone here also freelances, it would be great to hear from you. My skype is jsandlund

Many thanks!
Jonny

Hi I have not built the site as of yet I do have several domains i use to build and test stuff though on our server.

Scenario: I build a WPMU site on the main domain then I add a sub-folder for bbpress is there a way / or thread here explaining how I can have separate databases and one login for both sites? I would like to keep the databases separated so as we grow and I need to separate things it would simplify things as far as moving and using a couple different servers.

So WP-1 with MU and / subfolder WP-2 with bbpress / 2 databases on the same account, one login for both.

I have to say this it took two weeks to figure it all out. But bbpress is prety awesome even after over 10 years of phpbb, I think you have something awesome here, Thanks!

One more thing, is there a way to set the notify tic box to “auto notify” and tic of you don’t want notified?
Thanks again!

Can someone help me add a Report Abuse button to my site? (Preferably a plugin)

Since allowing a user to upload an avatar on the front-end is evidently not possible (at least not without considerable changes), I’d like to place a link beside the:

Profile: USERNAME (Edit) (Change Profile Picture)

… giving them a direct link to the dashboard if they want to upload an avatar. Only problem? Can’t find the proper file to add this.

Any one willing to point that out?

Thanks!

Using bbPress 2.1.2

Happy to see that a toolbar has been added in, however it doesn’t currently work very well for code. It’s allowing basic HTML like strong even though wrapped with code tags to execute.

I miss the old backtick option that forced ANY and ALL code to display as plain text like a champ.

Thanks, Bryan

When a user creates a new topic I want them to tick a disclaimer box to agree to terms and conditions and click a link to a view the T&C’s page. Ideally I would like the submit button to only activate after the box is ticked.
Had anyone done anything similar or know if this is possible?
Thanks

I updated to 2.1.2 and now my forums are just a page. Was working fine before the upgrade.

Any ideas?

Hello,

I run a custom loop for some replies at a specific part in my template. I would like anyone that has the rights to edit these replies. I use bbp_reply_admin_links for that, but this function gives me NULL. When digging futher in to the code I see that bbp_is_reply equals NULL in bbp_reply_admin_links. Probably because im not in a “official” bbpress loop. Anyone has a solution? Manually calling bbp_get_admin_links($post->ID) does not do the trick. bbp_is_reply still gives false on that, because bbp_get_admin_links does not give the ID trough to bbp_is_reply.

                             "reply",
                                        "post_parent" => get_the_ID(),
                                        "order" => "ASC", // First comments first
                                        "paged" => get_query_var("paged")
                                    )
                                );

                                $i = 1;

                                if($replies->have_posts()) :
                                    while($replies->have_posts()) :

                                        $replies->the_post();
                                        $class = ($i % 2) ? "" : "mark";

                                        ?>
                                        <!-- reply -->

                                                    Administrator

WordPress Version 3.4.1

bbPress Plugin Version 2.1.2

Theme is a customized version of PHP-Ease, which uses Blueprint for layout.

See: www.php-ease.com/wordpress/themes/framework.html

The forums page (linked to above) looks fine, but if you click through to those forums or to individual posts, you’ll see that the header changes. Also, the right sidebar is all degraded. The forums themselves take up the whole width of the browser window. The sidebar stuff appears below.

I’ve played with float attributes some, but all those do is alter the width of the table containing the forum materials. The sidebar stuff remains below.

This was not a problem until bbPress 2.1 appeared.

I have a feeling I need to merge style sheets or tell bbPress to use my own stylesheet, but I’m at a loss as to how to do these things. Any help you can provide would be appreciated.

By the way: overall, great product. I’m a fan.

Thanks,

Marty Priola
